Mazda MX-5 35th Anniversary Edition, 1,000-unit special for Japan

The Mazda MX-5, also known as the Roadster or Miata, is undoubtedly one of the most iconic cars in the automotive world, having sold over 1.2 million units since its launch back in 1989.

To celebrate its 35th anniversary, Mazda will be offering a limited edition model known as the MX-5 35th Anniversary Edition.

According to Mazda, only 1,000 units will be produced, and all will be sold in Japan starting February 2025. Customers can choose between a soft top or a hard top RF version.

So what makes the commemorative model more special than the standard version?

In terms of exterior, the MX-5 35th Anniversary Edition is presented in Artisan Red Premium Metallic, which is applied using ‘Takuminuri’ technology to further accentuate the lines and curves of the MX-5’s body.

Additionally, it comes with a beige roof, 17-inch alloy wheels, and a ’35th Anniversary’ badge complete with the production serial number located adjacent to the rear tyres.

Inside, it boasts tan Nappa leather upholstery matched with beige carpeting, as well as embossed ’35th Anniversary’ logos on the headrests.

There are no mechanical changes, sadly. The soft top version still features a 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine producing 136 PS and 152 Nm, paired with a six-speed manual transmission that drives the rear wheels.

Meanwhile, the RF version is powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine delivering 184 PS and 205 Nm, and is available with either manual or automatic transmission.

The starting sale prices are 3,753,200 yen (£24,250) for the soft top, 4,354,900 yen (£28,358) for the manual RF, and 4,382,400 yen (£28,646) for the automatic RF.
